Dreams

I had a dream last night. Ryan was crying when I walked into some room, and he had a really hard time telling me something, so it took him a long time to spit it out: He said that Adena had died. He kept "sobbing" and I finally believed him, although I couldn't quite grasp to gravity of the situation. Finally I asked, "How did she die?" and he told me, "She died because she never flossed." I was so confused, trying to understand how not flossing would kill somebody, when out from behind a door popped Adena, dressed in a bath towel. "Ha-ha, gotcha!" she said, and Ryan began to laugh.

And frankly, I'm still angry about it. Adena (and Ryan), don't ever do that to me again!

The only believeable part of that story is Ryan sobbing. And never underestimate the importance of dental hygiene.

I had a dream recently after Adena told me about Sage having 5 ticks on him. In my dream, Asher was younger and we were at Mom's house only there was a forest in the front yard, and he went and crawled into it and I grabbed him because I thought he would get ticks. When we took him inside he was covered with giant ticks, tons of them, and I was just pulling them off, and then there was a giant cockroach on him too, and then a smallish snake. I just kept pulling stuff off of him. It was awful.
